Nice Rick!!!
If you notice Rick, in the editors notes are the standard EXCUSES by the loser and the people who support the loser!!!
Sounds alot like the Busa guys when the 12s beat them also!!!

Good article Rick. And as for me, I can live with Mark Barnett's comments as well.

Thanks 12r for scanning the article
Ninjaman Was faster than the Bullshit Hoss. The editor seemed to make a lot of excuses at the end. Hey mark barnett,If a frogs ass wasn't watertight he'd get wet too!
Way to go rick!

I was struck by how gracious of a winner Rick was. He could have shown less class and rubbed their noses in it. I am getting more and more anxious for June 22 @ Earlville.

Hell let them build the fuck outta it....... Let us bring a built one to the show..... I smell another win for the 12 coming....... Take a fast NOS model to the boss hoss people..... Alos 50 MPH rollon is doing everything but letting them win to help them..... let the get that fat heavy turd moving from 0 mph..... Major ass whooping.....

I would love the chance to run across one on my N2O infected Green Monster on the street.... Just an average Boss Hoss rider that thinks he's cool...... AS MY TAILIGHT DISAPPEARS I BET HE WOULD HAVE A TEAR IN HIS EYE.... Hell I would have to stop and tell him how good these 600 Ninjas run now days. as I have 0 ZX12 sticker or any for that matter......

I agree with freek that if they fix it it might be fast. But in my mind it is kinda like saying..."if I put a bigger motor in my zx6 it would be fast too."
Great write up Rick.

Excuses are like assholes, but I think that dude has 4 or 5 of 'em. Great write up Rick, everyone knows they're just excuses in the editor's note.

If they go modified then we go modified..... Also make them get that fat ass tank off the line from a dead stop.... Why favor them at 50 mph rollons... Taking off is part of racing to..... They don't do 50 mph rollons at the track.... And also consider this.... How fast could your 12 be with the same money in it as the boss hoss?????? They couldn't even see it....

i'm not so sure about that paul. considering the power u can get outa one of those big blocks, even the poor aeros of the boss hoss prolyl wouldnt keep it fom 200mph i'm guessing. cours,e if u allow them to play with the engine to get more out of it, then so can we. but finally, with all the stops removed, they can get several thousand horses outa one of those engines. what's the best u can do with a 12 engine? 400hp? i'm talking bored out turbo plus nitrous etc etc. but now we're getting into near theoretical realms.

Well guys all I can say is the guys here inspired me to try to start racing last summer. I reported when I kicked the guy on the built 9R's ass and his buddy on the Busa. I also reported when the guy on the busa handed me my nuts! Bottom line is no excuses! I have a Muzzy SS/Ti on my bike thats it! Everyone I raced had more power adders than me. Hell the one Busa was dropped and streched. But I make no excuses. The whole thing of "oh if I had a different tire" Shit if the Cubs won another 45 games last year they would have been world champs! Win like a man, lose like a man

Ahhhhh.....
The truth has set me free.
I told all the Boss Hoss naysayers I had the goods to back my story. They can all start eating crow now. My bike is WAY faster now, and I'd never give them the chance to run from a "50 mph hit" again. Who knows??? In time I may actually want to go race the biggest bunch of sore losers and liars that ever played the game.
On second thought why bother??? I proved my point eh?
